4 myths about programmers
Rumor has it that programmers are a separate branch of evolution. A sort of Homo Programmers who spend all their time behind a pile of computer iron to the detriment of washing, shaving and personal life.
People say that they are very difficult to meet on the street, and even more so in the theater or philharmonic society. These individuals lead a purely home or office lifestyle, communicate in their own language and constantly think about new hardware. If a programmer does not have a wife, he eats purely beer and crackers, and in the case of hungry times, he can eat for a long time what he finds in the keyboard.
Let's debunk some programmer myths.
Myth one - a small salary
')
The salary of programmers is different. According to the site job50.ru, the programmer's salary ranges from 30 thousand rubles to 150 thousand rubles. The average salary of a programmer in Moscow and the Moscow region is 60 thousand rubles. This is about 2 times less than the director receives, and 3 times more than the seller receives.
The second myth - obsession with iron
There is some. But most likely it is a diagnosis. However, it cannot be said that programmers other than the computer are not interested in anything.
Here is a look at the site rsdn.ru an open survey was conducted by programmers: what do you do in your free time?
Only 44% of the time spent on programming are engaged in ... programming :) and about 33% play computer games.
However, a rather large percentage are engaged in self-education (40%), 36% read, 26% ride a bicycle. The votes were equally distributed between the music and film lovers (20% each).
And someone bad combines programming and music.
See for yourself.

In addition, 33% of those who voted prefer the opposite sex in their free time and 15% prefer their family. But these data, perhaps, can be attributed to dispelling the myth of the third ...
The third myth - the complete lack of privacy
In fact, programmers also want warmth, affection and love. They, like all normal guys, meet with girls (watch a cool video!)
And then they get married and become fathers - tender and caring :)
Myth Four - untidy appearance
The image of the programmer for most people is the same - it is a thin unshaven type with red eyes, dressed in faded jeans and a wool sweater. Yes, and with glasses necessarily.
In fact, a successful programmer from a reputable company always looks after his appearance and tries to look great.
A direct example is Andrew Morton, a Google programmer.
Beck Kent is a recognized leader in the software industry.
and many other famous personalities ...
